Forums - Sales - Global HW & USA/UK SW up! (13th October)

I think that's quite a nice opening for Dishonoured. There have been so many damn adverts for it at the start of youtube videos. But still, real nice, ~ 400k opening week across 3 platforms.

Vita slowly trickling up in UK, sadly nothing too substantial though.

And LBP Vita in the USA - dropped off like a rock. Still wonder if we're ever going to get those first week sales or if this is it. Ah well.

PS3 with the only positive weekly change (+3%) in the US market. Why? Continued FIFA fallout? Have the new bundles succeeded in moving hardware? From a software perspective, this should probably be a down week in the US across the board.

i just realized that the uk hardware market is bigger as the us-american gaming market per capita, was that always like this?


Pretty equal aren't they?

if wiki is correct with population, usa should have 322,714 hardware sales this week to be equal but it only has 225,471


I was going off lifetime sales to date.  Also, with reagrd to current weekly sales numbers, 'm not convinced the tracking of Europe is too accurate at the moment. I find it hard to believe the recession isn't affecting hardware sales more. 

ahh ok, i edited my post and didn't know you quoted me before i edited.

Interesting that both DS and 3DS did not get any bumps.


They are in NA, not sure why Vgchartz isn't reflecting this.

Looks like the new SuperSlim model was reasonably successful in Europe but hasn't really done much in the US.


I still haven't seen ANY Adverts. Sony is seriously incompetent.

Again... DS did ~130k (31k per week) last NPD (and the last, and the last). Now, with a million seller week - it's on track to do 52k (13k per week) here. Like Alan Moore once said, "fearful symmetry".

Oh well. Whatever.

You'd think they'd do something about it after undertracking it for months. It's pretty much guaranteed that DS will be heavily undertracked for yet another month...

I am highly disappointed by my country. Dishonored's OPENING outsold by the third week of FIFA?

But your county is a FIFAfootball land.

I love to watch the Premier League matchs.

Precisely why I dislike it

I hate to watch the premier league matches, but hey, to each his own.

I just wish they could at least have bought both their annual football release and the awesome new IP

I can already guess holiday results.
